Up For Review

Crazy Little Notes

My reviews will contain spoilers because I've found it hard to write a good review unless it talks about the whole book, so if you haven't read the book in question-and any previous books, just know that there's a potential for spoilers. Just wanted to let everyone know!

It's just so hard to think of something original, that I don't repeat myself, even if I loved the book, especially if I loved the book, since I either love or hate a book, and mostly I lean towards love. So things tend to run together after a while. And it seems that there's limited words in my vocabulary, and they get used over and over, I needs more words!!!
